Let's get back to what happened with me and Julius when I took him at the back of the Vanta's camp, to calm his nerves. Julius is a sweet boy, he just has a rough past that he is holding onto. And I kinda like him, but it doesn't justify the unholy things I did with him that day, God help me. Asher was packing lots of whiskey and tequila she stole from the pantry for dry days. Asher loves wines and partying, but it's sad her beautiful life was cut short on that very black Friday."You guys have a lot going on back here." Julius said looking around."Yes, really. It's Asher's little secret"I said."I am sorry about your friend, Helion. I..." He began to apologise as I came close to him putting up my finger on his mouth to stop him from what he wanted to say. Staring at my lips, he gently pushed me over against the wall and brought his mouth so close to mine. It was very tempting. He gulped and look me in the eyes, circling the tip of his nose on mine. I couldn't take the torture anymo
I guess I have never talked much about myself. I don't know how you must have perceived me but I guess this will put you in the right track. I am Helion Mary. 5 ft 8.7 inches tall. I have a blonde hair, but my mum is a brunette together with my dad. So, when I think twice about my dad, Paul not being my biological father, don't blame me.I don't have much of a great story because my life since I have known it has been a heck of bumpy rides and it made me tougher. I use to have a very long hair in school, some liked it while some bullied me about it, they are just jealous I know, but it made me a loner because I had no friends then and I didn't matter. But since I became a Marshall, I have enjoyed my hair well trimmed, some inches above my neck, military rules you know. Sometimes, I feel like I was not planned to be born, but sometimes I feel like I have a great purpose to fulfill. I don't know which it is. Then I had a sister, a cute little girl, with a very big blue eyes, Yuvonne. W
The day of the President's Official speech was fast approaching and the eight of us were training seriously on the clock keeping a crossed finger.Low-key, I and Mercury have been looking for the third anchor chain that casts it's shadow on the big mysterious door behind the Alpha's camp at night. We observed that the silhouette always comes out at the third day of every month. Is it a kind of Vudu? We couldn't place our hands on the magic or whatever that is behind it. I couldn't get my mind off the guy that walked up to me earlier at the refectory and gave me a kind of warning, more like a threat. My curiosity began to show itself as I stalked him and found out about him. He is actually a very secretive person, but I on the other hand, is a very inquisitive person. Makes the two of us. His name was George Anderson and according to some people, he's one of the oldest oldies in the Marshalls, he had always had the chance of completing his stars and leaving the Marshalls for the KS bu
"Are you saying that this guy is into some kind of cosmic activities or whatever?"Mercury queried."I know right? It's sounding very dreamy. What got into my skin was when he went, *You are the little fickle of light in my darkness*. Like what was that supposed to mean?""Okay, at this point I am keeping an open mind ready to not be surprised at any other stuff I see or hear in this goddamn place. It's the only way to remain sane." Mercury said expressing her self by raising her hands up. " I don't know its, it's just like we're in some kind of contemporary paranormal movie scene." "Yeah, like Casper and Stir of echoes?"Mercury added as she gave a big sigh and chuckled. "On the day of the Escort Mission. I will be your partner Mercury, that way I can find a chance and go up to the President's office with nobody looking for me. I will find the book and then we move." "I hope it will be that easy." "I will have to try. It's the only way to go there. If we screw it this first tim
We left the Marshalls for the Escort Mission very early in the morning on a helicopter, having General Gal as the pilot on board. We were heavily equipped and on our flak jackets with many pockets containing grenades, bullets and tactical knives.I had to carry a backpack for my second, personal mission.I sat, on the copter's landing rail with Sharpe carrying our guns. I was never afraid of heights but depth. Sharpe seemed to be afraid of nothing. She is a one tough person, reminds me of someone I once knew, Asher.I and Mercury were assigned to stand with the President during his few minutes speech.The Ashock Leyland driver and his company also went to were they were asked to position. Moses is a skilled driver and he was to be trusted.The eight of us had our code for communication, unit one to four, each unit with two Soldiers also in the code, rain and shine.* Rain. Shine. Units* Arms. Gal. 1* Mercury. Helion. 2* Janet.
Now, inside the elevator, I was standing infront of the two Dogma beasts.My senses were so high, I had to close my eyes to read there movement behind me.They knew I was an enemy. Closing my eyes and using my instinct, I stood so still, you could mistake me for a mannequin because I knew, any misguided step and they would pounce on me and that would definitely be the end. But I wanted to take the fight to them. So I calculated how to do that, dealing with one is enough but two? I had to be very smart.The one on my right started drawing on his knife, it fell from his hand unfortunately, bending down to pick it, I seized the opportunity.I immediately stepped on the knife and on his hand too, with my left elbow, I knocked the one on my left who was already making to attack me but I was faster. Swiftly I turned, holding the one on my right on his head with my two hands. I hit his head on the floor from his squatting position so hard, his eye popped out of his head, he yelled in pains as
"So, Sharpe. What exactly happened to your snipers?"I asked Sharpe when I got a little strength. Mercury did something that made me to like her the more. Coming to the mission with my water flask. I forgot it, but she remembered. "Man, I don't know really. It doesn't make sense it was preposterous. Thank God I was not assigned alone, because if not, you guys would have thought of me as a lunatic. Anthony please help me out." "These people are in some kind of cosmic stuffs, Vudu, whatever. We had to put normal people on target, it will be very clear, but then we'd put the Dogmarians back on target and it would go blur. I am so convinced, they are into some fetish stuffs." Anthony added. "Adding to what is happening to Henry, there is no other way to put it."Julius chipped in, looking at me lustfully even with my shit looking face.The General remained quiet all the while.Then I looked at Mercury, she looked back at me and I saw it in her eyes, she was thinking what I was thinking
I woke up the next day, on the floor.Man, I was a mess, someone had been trying to wake me up. It was Yuvonne and I was having a head bang from last night's.Speaking of last night, I took the letter from the floor and crumpled it fastly so that Yuvonne would not see the agonizing letter, I don't know how disastrous it will be when she sees it, so I made sure to keep it out of her reach, for the moment, or possibly forever. "What in the hell are you doing on the floor looking like shit?"Yuvonne asked, squatting down to have a look. "Where have you been Yuvonne? I was awake all damn night waiting on you" "Really? Are you gonna answer my question with a question, what's up with your eyes, did someone throw you a blow? And your temple, Helion, you look horrible." "Yeah, yeah. I know. It's uhmm, you know from yesterday. C'mon gimme a hand here." I said stretching out my hand and she helped me to stand up. I turned around and made for the shower with the letter still under my dress.
